Unit Nine Insurance Part Five: Exercises I. Answer the Following Questions: 1. The purpose of insurance is to provide compensation to a person or a group of persons or a company who suffers from loss or damage.

International transpoatation insurance is calculated on the basis of CIF + 10%. 3. 110% of the invoice value. 4. Sometimes, buyers may request insurances to cover more than 110%.
